4. 3. Physical activity and breast cancer. Risk, survival and perceived energy

   Författare :Anna Johnsson; LUCC: Lunds universitets cancercentrum; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical activity; occupational sedentariness; Breast cancer; exercise;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Physical activity and avoidance of sedentariness do enhance health in women with breast cancer, and could even reduce the risk of developing the disease. One aim of this thesis was to elucidate the association between sedentariness and breast cancer risk in women as a whole, and then separately for those younger than 55 years old and those 55 years or older.

5. 4. Alkaline Sphingomyelinase; A Potential Inhibitor in Colorectal Carcinogenesis

   Författare :Erik Hertervig; Lund Medicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; onkologi; cancer; Cytologi; cancerology; oncology; Cytology; Gastroenterologi; Gastro-enterology; HT-29; MIN mouse; FAP; colorectal cancer; human; alkaline sphingomyelinase;

   Sammanfattning : Sphingomyelin (SM) is present both in eucaryotic cells and the diet. Sphingomyelinase (SMase) hydrolyses SM and generates ceramide that has been implicated in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis. Previously a SMase with alkaline pH optimum was identified in the intestinal tract. LÄS MER
